I can't be an NPC

Chapter 306 I'll Lead the Way!

Warlocks are somewhat similar to priests.

Priests use belief in the gods to obtain divine magic as their combat system, supplemented by their own physical training as the basis for combat.

Warlocks, on the other hand, achieve a connection similar to that between priests and gods with powerful alien beings who are not gods.

Warlocks' contracts are often alien demons, and those ambitious alien demons are always quite generous to humans who yearn for endless power and knowledge.

Demons from other worlds are called suzerains by magicians, and the relationship between them is not so much a worship relationship as a master-student relationship.

Ambitious humans are the favorite subjects of otherworldly demons.

Of course, although pacts between warlocks and otherworldly demons are the path of most warlocks, there are still many warlocks who serve non-demonic overlords.

Some travelers in the wilderness will inadvertently form a pact with the goblin lord or queen when they stumble into an impossibly beautiful tower; Extend beyond the real world, and then come into contact with those strange existences that reside in the void of Outland.

High Elves, Demons, Great Old Ones.

These existences are exactly what every magician can regard as suzerain.

It is equivalent to the eight schools of mages, and the magicians of these three directions will have their own different characteristics.

And because the existence of demons, goblins, or the old rulers is completely different from the existence of gods, although they all have unimaginably powerful power, the source and form of power are very different, which leads to the career path of warlocks and priests. It's completely different.

It is also a battle route that mainly uses the body and weapons, supplemented by the magic gifts bestowed by the suzerain. In terms of basic health and life growth, both are at the base value of 8 or 5.

However, the spell bonus attribute of the priest is perception, and that of the warlock is charm.

The priest perceives the gods, relying on personal efforts and sincerity, the gods do not choose believers.

God loves the world, and all beings are equal.

However, the suzerain of the magician is much more subjective. Only when they can get their favorite target can they get their magic gift, so charm has become a more important attribute instead.

Beyond that, the career paths are completely different.

The low-level characteristics of each profession at level 2 and level 3 are often the essence of this profession, and the same is true for warlocks.

At 2nd level, the warlock exhibits his own unique class style.

Invocation of Mana: During the study of mystical knowledge, you discovered the way of invocation of mana. These forbidden fragments of knowledge gave you lasting magic ability.At 2nd level, you gain two fel invocations of your choice, and you can learn additional fel invocations as you gain higher warlock levels.Additionally, you can replace a learned invocation with a new invocation when you gain a level in your class, but your character must meet the prerequisites for learning the new invocation.

(Optional invocations: Demon Explosion of Pain, Shadow Armor, Astral Walk, Word of the Beast, Inducing Words, Whispers of Deception, Book of Ancient Mysteries, Chain of Carceri, Devil's Vision, Word of Fear, Magic Power Vision, Fel Lance, Eye of the Rune Guardian, Demon Vitality, Shared Senses, Life Drinker, Face of a Thousand Faces, Lord of Shapes, Minion of Chaos, Mire of Mind, Misty Mirage, Melt into Shadows, Extraordinary Leap , Repulsive Demon Explosion, Reshape Flesh, Ominous Symbol, Fate Thief, Hunger and Thirst Demon Blade, Sky Vision, Lord Binding Voice, Grave Whisper, Sorcerer Vision.)
Lots of magic power invoking abilities basically endow this class with the ability to release some spells with no consumption or low requirements. Of course, it is not just spells, such as seeing through magic or non-magic darkness. In the dark environment, you can enter the stealth state, blend into the shadows, etc.

Some mana invocation abilities require preconditions, such as the use of specific magical blessings or the learning of specific spells, as well as specific level requirements; some mana invocation abilities do not have any requirements, and can be selected at any time.

And at the third level, the warlock also ushered in his crucial magic contract choice.

Magical Favor: At 3rd level, your overlord grants you a gift in return for your loyal service.You can choose one of the following traits: bond of chains, bond of blades, bond of books.

Pact of Chains: You learn the spell—acquires a familiar, and can cast it as a ritual.This spell does not count against your spells known count.

When you cast this spell, you can choose to summon a normal creature or one of the following special creatures: imp, pseudodragon, quasai, or goblin.In addition, you can have your familiar coordinate an attack when you perform an attack action.

Blade Pact: As an action, you can create a pact weapon from your free hand. When you wield the weapon, you gain +1 proficiency with that weapon.The weapon is treated as magical for the purpose of attacking a target that is resistant or immune to nonmagical attacks or damage.At the same time, you can change the existing magic weapon you hold into your contract weapon through a special ceremony.After the ritual is complete, you can dismiss the weapon at any time to transfer it to a different dimension.You can only have one contract weapon at a time.

The Pact of the Book: Your Suzerain has given you a magic book called "Book of Shadows".After gaining this trait, choose three cantrips from any class spell list (the three cantrips don't have to be from the same list).You can cast those spells at will while the spellbook is with you.They don't count against your cantrip count.You treat these spells as warlock spells even though they are not originally on the warlock spell list.

Choices for familiars, weapons, and extra full-class cantrips.

The level 3 Warlock trait greatly expands the tactical options of this class, making this class's versatility to an astonishing level.

As for the Mystic Mystery at level 11, and Mana Control at level 20, although it is also a powerful characteristic, it is nothing more than providing more opportunities to cast high-level spells or recovering all consumed contract magic spell slots. Possessing similar characteristics is not considered a feature.

The other is the different branch abilities provided by the three existences of the supreme goblin, the demon, and the old ruler as the suzerain. Li Wen roughly checked it and didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, what Li Wen felt was really useful to him was the level 2 and 3 features of this profession.

Warlocks can rely on the contact, attention, and blessings of various existences to awaken the blood power in their bodies, while warlocks rely on actively communicating with those powerful existences to win their favor, thereby obtaining the power of the contract.

What both have in common is that they both obtain the core strength of their respective professions from those indescribably powerful beings.

Li Wen felt that he could try to find the common ground among them, and then... squeeze those mysterious wools!
Demon from another world?Rose should be one of them, right?

She is a god, but she is also one of the abyss lords in the abyss.

Looking back, I guess I can go to Zall and call her out to add a buff to myself.

Then Croxan didn't know what kind of existence it was.

Shar, Lady of the Night?The will of the corrupted moon?

Which is her real identity?Or all of them?

An existence like this... I don't know if it counts as... the ruler of the old days?
As for the supreme goblin, Li Wen hasn't come into contact with it yet.

Fairies are magical creatures who live in a plane called Fairy Wilds.

Fairy Wilderness does not belong to the material plane, nor does it belong to any of the inner or outer planes. It is an existence reflected by the material plane.

The Material Plane is a magical place full of magic, the essence of which is embodied in the other two planes that share the center of the multiverse with it - Feywild and Shadowfall.

They occupy two parallel dimensions of the same cosmic space, often referred to as the Plane of Reflection or the Mirror Plane of the Matter Plane.The worlds and landforms of the two are imitated from the natural environment of the Material Plane, but they appear in different forms-it will appear gorgeous and wonderful in the Feywild, while it will appear distorted and dark in the Shadowfall Underworld.

For example, a volcano on the Material Plane—in the Feywild, it may be a towering mountain made of crystals, with dazzling beams of light shining inside it; Skull-shaped rough rock walls.

This kind of parallel plane will intersect with the real material world at some accidental time, and only at that time, mortals may be lucky enough to enter that magnificent land, so as to see the true face of the goblin.

Maybe Fairy Wilderness has little to do with Li Wen at the moment, but if his idea can come true, then he has to find the hard-to-reach Fairy Wilderness to have a heart-to-heart talk with their queen.

The premise is... his idea can be realized.

Just do it.

At this moment, reminders are constantly jumping in Li Wen's mind.

[You are trying to break the shackles of the career path and distort the professional characteristics into personal expertise. The completion rate of this attempt is 0%. 】

……

[You are trying to break the shackles of the career path and distort the professional characteristics into personal expertise. The completion rate of this attempt is 0%. 】

……

[You are trying to break the shackles of the career path and distort the professional characteristics into personal expertise. The completion rate of this attempt is 0%. 】

???

After several attempts, Li Wen frowned.

What do you mean?
Not moving at all?

This is the first time he has encountered such a situation.

In the past, even when I was not good at learning skills, if I had some ideas in my mind, it would never be completely 0, and even if it was not good, I could go to two decimal places.

Moreover, a certain description language in my mind, which seems to be background information, seems to be different from before.

Is it impossible to complete it at all?

Should not be ah.

Looking at this description... it should be that the prerequisites are difficult to complete.

It is not too difficult to distort professional characteristics into personal expertise, but it is rare...to break the rules.

Yes.

The professional rules system in this world is unbreakable.

As long as one invests soul energy to increase the occupational level, one can obtain the specified characteristics of a specific level under the occupational level.

That's all for the players, even the aborigines.

Some kind of rule that acts on everyone secretly controls the operation of all this.

If you don't want to work in this profession, you want to acquire other people's characteristics... It seems impossible.

Wouldn't it be good to have a job then?
The problem is that Li Wen's charm is not enough.

The 13-point charisma requirement is also an impossible task for him who only has 3 charisma points.

Can the Creator specialty help him break this rule?After all, it has already helped itself break many rules before.

After this idea came to his mind, Li Wen immediately took action.

Fortunately, this process of trying to simulate does not consume any real things from Li Wen except for time and a certain amount of mental power.

however……

Still in vain.

Zero Egg didn't move at all, not even a change in the description language.

It is unrealistic to expect to directly break the rules.

Then we can only take a step back?
Put the same characteristics in a brand new career that you can work for yourself?

There are examples of this in reality - such as multiple attacks.

It is almost a melee class, and it is a feature common to most classes.

So maybe it's okay to use the creator's expertise to do this kind of existing thing?
Li Wen started another new attempt in his mind.

However, repeated several times, the ruthless Big Zero is still whipping Li Wen's weak heart.

After switching to a different description language, Li Wen knew where the new problem was.

Warlocks are not made for these traits, but these traits are made for warlocks.

These characteristics are highly bound to the profession system of the Warlock, which is completely his own characteristic. There is no other profession that is compatible with these characteristics. If there is... then it must be a Warlock, or his variant.

Class systems that already exist and are known to have been created by others are not allowed to steal the creator's privileges.

Could it be that this path just doesn't work?
It is impossible to acquire other people's characteristics without taking a job.

So as a magician, maybe you can learn from the abilities of a warlock, but Li Wen wants to use the abilities of a magician and a warlock together, which is just a whimsical idea.

After many failed attempts, Li Wen came to this conclusion, but he was not too discouraged.

The wrong way is as valuable as the right way.

Even if the idea of ​​borrowing the professional abilities of both sides at the same time does not work, there is still room for development of those super magic abilities of the warlock profession.

Li Wen can still make other attempts.

It's just that the narrow-minded dark Bobby is obviously angry that things can't go according to his expectations.

When you get angry, you want to do something.

"set off!"

Li Wen suddenly stood up.

"What... what's wrong?"

The golden-haired female player standing by was startled by Li Wen's shock.

"Find the resurrection point! Go home!"

"Oh oh~"

The golden-haired female player glanced at the others, "Have you all rested yet?"

Li Wen has been meditating for a while. Even though the deep fatigue has not been completely relieved, his basic mobility has recovered by [-]% to [-]%, and he can go back early. No one wants to stay in a place like the Death Plain. So, they all stood up at this time.

"No problem."

"We're fine, we can go."

"That's good, I'll lead the way."

The golden retriever female player picked up the torch again and took the lead.

"and many more!"

Li Wen stopped her, "I'll lead the way."
